Berachain’s 2025 airdrop sparked outrage—50% token allocation to insiders left 10% for users, per web buzz.

The market’s pulse, a tense hum, reflects distrust—some argue governance masks elitism. This spectral rift, a fragile thread, pits community ideals against allocation’s reality, questioning Berachain’s democratic promise in this governance storm.
